Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Shen Qingyi rushed out.

Holding a green sheathed sword, Shen Qingyi was about to slash Steward Gao who just slapped the widow.

She was extremely fast.

In just a breath’s time, she had instantly covered more than a hundred meters in distance. She was only ten meters away from Steward Gao.

However!

Just as she was about to swing her sword to kill Steward Gao!

Chen An reacted in time. With a thought, he used an almost proficient Body Isolation Technique on her, almost at the same time.

Shen Qingyi was instantly rooted to the ground, unable to move.

Steward Gao, who was in front of the spirit fruit stall, sensed that there seemed to be someone behind him. His heart tightened and he wanted to look back.

Fortunately, Chen An was in time. He used the Fixed Body Technique and the Sleepy Time Spell on him, causing him to fall asleep and lose consciousness.

Then, before the widow in front of the spiritual fruit stall could react, Chen An rushed behind Shen Qingyi and picked her up skillfully. He turned around and flashed back into the house, closing the courtyard door.

The entire process was done in one go.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye.

Inside the house, in the hall.

His wives and daughter were all in the room.

Hence, only Chen An and Shen Qingyi were in the huge hall.

Shen Qingyi was still rooted to the ground, her heart filled with disbelief.

I, at the fourth level of Foundation Establishment, was actually stunned by Chen An, who is only at the third level of Foundation Establishment?

Moreover, I only taught him this Body Isolation Technique not long ago!

He had just learned it not long ago!

Why can you use the Body Isolation Technique to freeze me?

Shen Qingyi began to doubt her life.

Chen An did not know what Shen Qingyi was thinking at this moment. Soon, he released her with a thought.

Shen Qingyi could move now. The way she looked at Chen An changed.

In the past, Chen An was just an insignificant Cultivator in her eyes.

Now, not only did Chen An rely on his outstanding looks to attract her,

Moreover, his strength had also caught up with hers and could easily suppress her making her unable to move.

And all of this happened in a short year.

This was simply unbelievable! This was simply too unbelievable!

Chen An ignored the strange look in Shen Qingyi’s eyes and said reproachfully, “Fellow Cultivator Shen, you were too impulsive just now.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Qingyi recalled the scene of Steward Gao molesting the widow.

She was instantly furious. Her tone was filled with killing intent as she said, “Steward Gao deserves to be killed!”

“Steward Gao deserves to be killed, but have you thought about the consequences of killing him?”

Chen An looked into her eyes and said earnestly, “Fellow Cultivator Shen, this is the Redwood Forest, not the Bamboo Leaf Forest. There are people stronger than you everywhere. If you kill Steward Gao, can you deal with the Crimson Fire Gang after this?”

Shen Qingyi said nonchalantly, “If I can’t deal with it, at most, i’ll die.”

When Chen An heard this, he could not help but frown slightly.

His tone was no longer calm. Instead, he criticized her by name. “Shen Qingyi, you’re too selfish.”

“You feel good if you kill Steward Gao.”

“But have you ever thought that you’re living in my house now? If you do that, you’ll implicate me and my family. Have you considered my feelings and those of my wives and daughter?”

Chen An’s words were heart-wrenching. After calming down, Shen Qingyi felt ashamed.

Shen Qingyi pursed her lips and said apologetically, “Alchemist Chen, I was inconsiderate. 1’11 move out now. 1 won’t implicate your family.”

After saying that, she turned around and walked towards her room. She went in to pack her luggage and left.

Chen An followed her in. He walked behind her and picked her up. He threw her onto the bed and pressed her on top of him. He looked into her eyes and asked, “Can you bear to leave this family?”

“1 can’t bear to, but I have no choice.”

Shen Qingyi did not dare to look Chen An in the eye and turned her face to the side.

Chen An did not say anything. He lowered his head and kissed Shen Qingyi.

After a long time, he stopped and asked, “How could you not have choices?”

Shen Qingyi’s face was very hot, and her breathing was heavy. She had yet to recover from the almost-suffocating kiss.

After catching her breath for a moment, she looked into Chen An’s eyes and pursed her lips. “Alchemist Chen, I won’t be able to hold back. 1 won’t be able to help when I see injustice. 1 won’t be able to hold back from punishing evil. If I continue to live in this house, sooner or later, I’ll implicate you and your wives and daughter like today.”

“Then stay at home in the future and go out less. Out of sight, out of mind.”

“But 1 can’t do it.”

“It’s okay. 1’11 help you do it.”

As Chen An spoke, he took out a belt from Shen Qingyi’s waist and stopped persuading her verbally. Instead, he chose to persuade her with his actions.

Shen Qing did not refuse.

About two hours later.

Chen An looked at Shen Qingyi in his arms and reached out to tidy her messy hair. He said gently, “Fellow Cultivator Shen, can you do it now?”

“I… i don’t know.”

Shen Qingyi’s heart was filled with conflict. Deep down, she wanted to continue punishing evil, but she did not want to leave this family. She did not want to lose Chen An’s warmth every day.

Chen An was silent. Then, he said, “Everything is difficult at the beginning. You should give it a try first. You might be able to do it.”

“Ok.”

Shen Qingyi responded softly and chose to obey.

Half a month later, in Wen Zhiyun’s room.

Chen An was spreading his divine consciousness to investigate the situation of the child in Wen Zhiyun’s stomach.

“Husband, how’s the child?”

“Everything is normal.”

“Everything is normal, and everything is still normal. Then why is there no sign of the child ready to be born even after 11 months?”

Wen Zhiyun was really anxious. She was so anxious that she had not slept well for a few days.

But it was useless for her to be anxious.

For the past few days, Chen An had been checking on the child in her stomach every day.

However, every time, it showed that everything was normal. He could not find the reason why she was not going into labor.

“Yun’er, don’t worry too much. Perhaps our child’s physique is special and needs to develop more.”

Seeing that Wen Zhiyun was still worried, Chen An had no choice but to comfort her.

Hearing Chen An’s comforting words, Wen Zhiyun’s anxiety did not ease at all.

In the past few days, Chen An had been comforting her like this almost every day. She was already immune to it.

In the current situation, as long as the child in her stomach was not born, she would not be at ease.

“Yun’er, you haven’t slept well these few days. Rest early.”

“I can’t sleep.”

“It’s fine. I’ll hug you to sleep.”

Chen An helped Wen Zhiyun adjust her lying position and carried her to rest on the bed.

After a while.

Seeing that Wen Zhiyun was still not asleep, he cast a Sleepy Time Spell on her and let her fall asleep quickly.

After coming out of the room, Chen An left the house.

He wanted to go to the Willow Street A/Iarket and sell the Small Revitalizing Pills he had refined recently to exchange for spirit stones that could be used for cultivation.

On the way, Chen An, who had excellent senses, heard many residents discussing the same thing along the way.

It was said that a masked righteous person had recently appeared in Hundred Herbs Alley. They specially helped when they saw injustice and stood up for many residents who had been bullied by the Crimson Fire Gang.

Every time they attacked, they would beat the members of the Crimson Fire

Gang until they covered their heads and fled. It was very satisfying.

Chen An felt that this masked righteous person’s actions were very similar to Shen Qingyi’s.

For a moment, he was suspicious. Could this be Shen Qingyi?

However, on second thought, Shen Qingyi had been staying at home for the past half a month. It shouldn’t be her.

Soon, Chen An arrived at the Qin Trading Company.

As soon as he landed, the female employee in the shop went out to welcome him with a warm smile.

“Fellow Cultivator, what a rare guest.”

Ever since he bought the arrays last time, Chen An had not visited again.

This female employee had been looking forward to seeing him for a long time.

After all, he had been too generous previously. He would easily spend more than a high-grade spirit stone at any time.

After bringing Chen An into the shop, the female employee immediately poured him a cup of spiritual tea and said with a smile,

“I wonder what you are looking to buy this time?”

“Fellow Cultivator is an esteemed guest of the Qin Trading Company. We can give you a certain discount on the price.”

“I’m not here to buy anything.”

“Then Fellow Cultivator is…?”

I’m here to sell medicinal pills.”

“Fellow Cultivator, are you an Alchemist?”

“Yes, a second-grade Alchemist.”

“Ahhh!”

The female employee gasped. Clearly, she did not expect Chen An to be a second-grade Alchemist.

Chen An did not waste his breath on her and went straight to the point. “I have a total of 50 bottles of Small Revitalizing Pills here. There are 20 pills in each bottle. 1 wonder how much they can be sold for?”

“1 have to appraise it to determine the exact price.”

The female employee looked at the medicine bottle that Chen An took out and placed on the tea table and said in a pleasant voice.

After saying that, she skillfully pulled out the cork of the bottle and appraised the quality of the medicinal pill through the color, taste, and efficacy.

During the appraisal, she did not neglect Chen An, who was a guest. She kept smiling and interacting with him.

After a simple exchange, Chen An learned that this female Cultivator was not an employee of the Qin Trading Company.

Instead, the person-in-charge of the Qin Trading Company was a daughter of the Qin family, the Golden Core family in Redwood Forest.

This young lady was currently in charge as the shopkeeper of this branch to earn money for the family.

“Alchemist Chen, based on my appraisal, the quality of your 50 bottles of Small Revitalizing Pills is not bad. I can buy them for one high-grade spirit stone.”

Shopkeeper Qin, who was also a female Cultivator that Chen An had mistaken for a female employee, smiled and offered such a purchase price after seeing the quality of 30 bottles of Small Revitalizing Pills.

This purchase price was in line with Chen An’s expectations.

Therefore, there was no need to bargain for a better price. He chose to sell it directly.

Not long after, Chen An accepted a high-grade spirit stone from Shopkeeper Qin.

After that, he did not waste any more time and flew home on his sword.

Along the way.

Chen An still heard many residents discussing the masked righteous person.

This time, he heard more information. This masked righteous person was a female Cultivator.

She was wearing a white brocade robe. Her swordsmanship was superb.

When she saw injustice on the way and helped, she only hit them and did not kill them, only wanted to teach them a lesson.

“Female Cultivator?”

“Superior swordsmanship?”

Chen An had a bad feeling. He increasingly felt that this masked heroine was Shen Qingyi..
